I am not a professional resume writer and currently can't take on more. US tech sis and bro have been talking about using ChatGPT for their resume. I tried it last weekend and it looked better than mine e.g, it changed the passive verbs. Ask it to re-write your current cv using keywords from the job role or industry. You can also ask it to rate you current resume by feeding it the job description for the job you are applying. General rules - same fon't, font size(11) (you can make it accessible), keep it tidy with lot of white spaces I.e, the sentences are not too long).

@Aphrodite007, @Lagosismyhome, @heroshark.

Thank you for bringing up this convo about PSV and everything you said is valid. However, there are many layers to it and I have questions
@aphrodite007 - are these people getting good jobs, but not with sponsorship or they are not getting jobs at all?  I asked because there were so many jobs and not enough people to do it as of January and that dwindled as the fin year ended.  If they had a "good enough" job, and performing why would any sensible HR let them go knowing they would spend more to backfill the role?

As an aside, on the issue of "big boys" in Nigeria - sometimes 'big boy' can make things clumsy. I saw the CV of two of my husband's friends - I wouldn't interview them with that CV tbh. They had loads of experience and had everything on their CVs. I got a headache from reading the 4 pages CV. CV got revamped, one got a job 2 weeks after and the other has been getting calls and now interviewing.'

@heroshark raised some valid points about upskilling, preparedness etc. There are lot of students around me and many of them got sponsorship whilst my brother is in a care job. A lady whom I accommodated interviewed with a lot of big firms but didn't pass their interviews. We all know there is a lot to interviews beyond skills. From day one, she knew what she wanted and went for it - it was a matter of time. She eventually got sponsored by NHS.

Whilst I am helping other people rewrite cvs, prep for interviews, upskill and motivate them, I have never seen my brother's cv or heard him say he has an interview somewhere. Even though he studied a lucrative course - add a bit of Excel proficiency, and SQL for beginners, the guy will be hotcake but I have realised not everyone is driven.

I told a guy to send me his cv and portfolio so I can refer him to recruiters especially the ones interested in black/minorities. The guy hasn't come back till date.

I have met people who got sponsored jobs before they finished uni. I can go on and on.

There is luck/grace and whatnot but there is something the 5% are doing that the 95% are not doing. I have seen it over and over again. It takes dedication and grit and not everyone has it. I may be wrong - happy to learn because the tuition fee my brother paid still dey pepper me.

Hi my people, my ex landlord dey carry me where I no know. We moved out of the house, rented a rug doctor, cleaned as much as we could, touched a few parts of the wall with paint as needed. Then agent sent check out pictures, he asked that some places be cleaned (we considered them clean and consistent with normal use, wear and tear). Then he says he will like to keep the whole £580!! I exchanged a couple of email saying that outrageous. He then said they usually pay 150-170" for a full professional cleaning and I asked how is that ever close to £580.

My question is how do I prevent this scam. I already said he should give me a break down of what he wants the money for, and we will send this and pictures to the deposit scheme.
What do I need to do please? He cannot scam an oo eko like me now

I pray you find a way out as soon as possible. That said, I'll encourage students here to desist from using form A for installment payment because of the delay in processing of the form and other factors. Many choose to use form A not because they can't pay in pounds but because the want to gain more naira.

Funpeter:

I’m not sure what you are trying to do here but usually the UK bank account gets debited. You will need to link your bank account first before you can progress to the next stage.

Gloriouscrown:
Hello everyone. Please for those who use lemonade finance, I'm having difficulty proceeding with my transaction. Once I input the UK bank account details I want to be credited, the CONTINUE button is not highlighted so I can't click on it to proceed. Please does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks

You are correct. My Salary calculator is mistakenly set to 4 week payments not monthly.
